Practice and Procedure

R v STEVEN PUACA (2005)

PUBLISHED November 25, 2005
SHARE

A conviction for murder was unsafe in the light of fresh expert evidence which indicated that damage to muscles of the victim had not been simultaneous with death and accordingly the evidence of a prosecution expert that the cause of death had been smothering could not be relied upon.
